6:37 pm
until 2045. so i don't think that will move the whole 10000000 road in your capital order. that's good to have a clarification. i do want to talk to you more about this move. if you would mind staying on the line. dr. brenman, i sorry, because i'd like to offer our viewers now a glimpse of what this new city news on tara is supposed to look like. these computer director images show a starkly different city compared to what jakarta currently is. lots of green spaces, an open walkways, a city surrounded by lush jungle, free from the congestion and pollution of the capitol. all residents are expected to be within a 10 minute walk of green spaces, and every high rise is expected to be constructed eco friendly manner. and be energy efficient. so clean, green and high turn. but as building begins, locals and environmentalists already warning of the impact did up those asia
